Efficacy of Our Climate.

About two years ago Captain A. III.
Kent. who was in command of Com
pany E, Second Kansas Artillery, dur
ing the war Of the Rebellion, was
stricken with paralysis on one side.
He went to Colorado Springs, and re-
turned to his home at Leavenworth
restored to health. He had not been
home long, however, before he was
paralyzed on the other side. He tried
the springs again, but this time OBJ
tained but very partial relief. He ar
rived in Los Angeles about two weeks
ago. He could only get around by the
assistance OF two canes. To the as
tonishment OF his family he had only
been here a few days when he threw
away his canes, and now walks very
well without their aid. His brother
in-law, Mr.. 7. w. Ferguson, says that
he never saw such great and rapid i'm
provement in a man in his life, and
ascribes it to the marvellous curative
virtues Of our climate. OF course, Cap
tain Kent is in love with a country
that has proven so beneficial to him,
and will permanently camp with us.

Lower California.

The idea that the boundary line
just south Of San Diego totally changes
the resources and climate on the other
side from oasis to desert, popularity
prevails. 1t is no more true than was
the old mythical "Great North Amer
lean Desert" OF our schoolboy days
Biographies. Eleven years ago Cap
tain F. E. Adams, OF this city, took a
wagon trip to Rosario on the 3lst par
allel. He found a fertile land, well
watered and comparatively uninhab-
tied. AS soon as the International
Company of Mexico secured perfect
title to $4,000, 600 acres in the penin-
sula Captain Adams went to San
Quintin, and on muleback travelled
and explored the interior for distance
of 800 miles. He found a grand coun-
try. fertile, well timbered and watefed.
He purchased a stock ranch there OF
5000 acres. There is valuable
spring of mineral water on his ranch.
He explored the great mountain
known as San Pedro de Martis, and
was on its sides at an elevation of over
$4,000 feet above sea-level. He thinks
of eventually settling at the new town
OF San Quintin to live out his days in
the mild, even cline OF the Pacific
coast Of the peninsula. In another
column will be found an advertise
ment of some valuable lands which
he has for sale there.

sons efforts. 1t was asserted by this

and that the hitch in the deal last week
was wholly due to the Gould party, who
wanted TO defeat 1t because the Missouri
